3. Configuration Procedures

Saving Configuration Options

When changes to the configuration options are complete, use the Save function key to save your changes to either the Current, Customer, or Scratchpad configuration areas.

NOTE:

When changing settings, you must Save for changes to take effect.

Procedure

To save the configuration option changes:

1.Press Ctrl-a to switch to the function key area at the bottom of the screen.

2.Type s or S to select the Save function and press Enter. The Save Configuration To: screen appears.

NOTE:

If you try to exit the Configuration menu without saving changes, a Save

Configuration screen appears requiring a Yes or No response.

If you select No, the Main Menu screen reappears and the changes are not saved.

If you select Yes, the Save Configuration To: screen appears.

3.Select the configuration option area to which you want to save your changes (normally the Current Configuration) and press Enter.

When Save is complete, Command Complete appears in the message area at the bottom of the screen.

NOTE:

There are other methods of changing configurations, like SNMP and Auto-Configuration. Since multiple sessions can be active at the same time, the last change made overwrites any previous or current changes being made. For instance:

Saving your configuration changes would cause configuration changes made via another method to be lost.

If you are making changes and someone else makes changes and saves them, your changes would be lost.
